The long and winding road...

These are some of my favorite pictures taken of Matt while we were at the playground the other day. What a handsome guy!! If you could see the amazing progress he has made on so many things...from language to coordination, strength, routines...and his interaction with each of the kids...so fun to watch all the positive growth.

This has been our two weeks of doc appt. and I am so glad the Lord has created this little boy with such a take charge spirit as he has a bit of a journey ahead of him. He will be getting glasses any day, as he is very, very far sighted. Doc was thankful to see him at age 3 as his eyes were starting to cross trying to compensate. He has fluid on his ears that if it doesn't clear in the next month...he will see an ENT to see if tubes will help or ear canals are not properly formed. He was very brave at the dentist and loved the bubble gum flavored flouride. He will be referred to a pediatric specialist for several deep cavities that may require baby root canals. Finally, speech and cleft team visits are just beginning...these will be on going.

What plans does the Lord have for Matthias Aaron Binghe? We will follow this winding road with Matt where ever it may lead and trust in the Father who created his inner most being and be proud parents of this 5th little blessing the Lord has brought into our lives:O)
